    Baja 1000 will be showing on NBC this morning! 10am on the west coast, 1pm eastern.

    Yeah, yeah, I know it'll probably be a cheesy show filled with car stuff, but if everyone tunes in and can show the powers-that-be that there really is a market for this stuff, maybe we'll get more programs like it in the future. That's what happened with MotoGP. We got a few GP's on regular TV this year so, who knows? Maybe we'll get more next year.

    It is everyone's patriotic duty as loyal dirtbikers to tune it...so do it!:D

    Live coverage of "Blizzard 2008" :banghead:

    There is barely enough snow to turn the grass white!

    Idiots, I need my off road fix!

    The news around here is insane. They LOVE when we get a trace of snow :banghead: I can't believe they are covering the 1/2 of snow like an event. Goofy :censored:

    Random thoughts...

    • Sal Fish appears to be getting younger, not older.
    • Steering dampeners seem to be well liked.
    • Pretty amazing how fast the fuel goes into the bikes.
    • It appears the trophy trucks suspensions are getting even better based on the footage.

    It didn't look like any of the top rides had helmet lights of any kind.
    Wonder why?

    I am not a baja rally/raid guy (have raced in baja a bunch of times tecate style daylight races) but have ridden with a few guys with their baja headlights on at night ,,,those things lite up a whole dang valley!! I don't think you could even see the a helmet light beam over those sick headlights,,,,but Helmet lights are certainly a great back up to have for sure. Baja 1000 /500 race guys,,need to check in on this one!! R

    Saw it last night....in HD!

    How many time's did they say LR's name?
    I lost count at like 300.

    Good to see Coco still kickin' it at the finish.

    I watched the last 1/2 of the show twice and had the same question. I've got the distinct impression things can go wrong down there & mistakes can be made.


    I'll watch it again to catch the Husqvarna banner and see if I can see Coco.

    LR = Larry Roseller, I think.
